    Thumbs up Contract pilot networking via ProPilotWorld.com


    Thanks to ProPilotWorld.com, I met another contract pilot three or four years ago. We fly the same types, but live in different parts of the country. We had some barbecue, hung out and told war stories, and have helped each other with 'what would you do with this client?', training materials, etc. We've commiserated over lost opportunities, shared possible opportunities, laughed at some other PPW members, etc.

    Recently I was able to hook him up with some flying with a client that wasn't working for me, logistically. The client even used us both on one trip, so it was a blast to finally get to fly together. He's gotten a couple more days out of that same client, and recently referred me to one of his clients for a trip he couldn't cover. I think we've both benefited from knowing each other, thanks to ProPilotWorld!
